2. RISK ESTIMATOR CHART
The Risk Estimator chart should be used as an assistant for filling out the work method statement.
Severity Probability Low x1 Medium x 2 High x3
Low x1 Low Probability x Low Severity LP x MS LP x HS
1x1=1 1x2 = 2 1x3 =3 Medium x2 MP x LS MP X MS MP x HS 2x1 =2 2x2 =4 2x3 =6 High x3 HP x LS HP X HS HP x HS 3 x 1 =3 3x2 = 6 3x3=9
Significant Risk = High Risk (6-9) or Medium Risk (3-4) in terms of probability and severity Tolerable Risk = Risk reduced to an acceptable level = Low Risk (1-2) Residual Risk = Risk remaining after implementing recommended control actions (usually very minor).
